Using Your Head

To succeed at anything, we need to think; to go about it in a way that's actually going to work. Vadanya examines different metaphors that help us to bring our reasoning and wisdom into action to make spiritual progress. He highlights the importance of creating the right conditions to grow and flourish, particularly the importance of spiritual friendship. Part 5 in the 'Path to Awakening' Sangha night series at Sheffield Buddhist Centre.

Points for reflection and discussion:
Do you believe that the whole of the spiritual life grows with a foundation of spiritual friendship?
What could you do this week in order to connect more with other people on the spiritual path?
Is there a difference between listening to a talk online and being there at sangha night?
